The girl, who has always been shy and introverted, rarely showed such joy on her face, and she couldn't suppress the upturned corners of her mouth.

"What good news?"

Ruan Xingchen raised the corners of his lips and pulled her in with a smile: "Look at you, you were so anxious that you didn't even put on your shoes."

Huo Xiaoning curled her fingertips awkwardly, her face flushed with realization, and whispered, "I wanted to share this with my sister-in-law so badly that I accidentally forgot."

After putting on her slippers, she happily held her cheeks, full of anticipation and excitement: "Sister-in-law, the teacher said she would take me to perform at the Grand Theater in Country F!"

Country F is famous for its romance.

All those who are able to perform at the F National Grand Theater are masters and talented new stars renowned both at home and abroad.

Master Yu Wan chose this concert as Huo Xiaoning's debut performance, which is the best praise for her talent and hard work.

"Is Xiaoning so great?"

Ruan Xingchen was genuinely happy for her, her eyes curved. "You guys need to go there and prepare in advance, right? When are we leaving?"

"I'm leaving this afternoon." Scratching the tip of his nose, Huo Xiaoning said in a low voice a little embarrassedly: "I... I just want to tell my sister-in-law."

She bit her lip hesitantly.

The first concert was the first time she publicly displayed the results of her studies during this period, which was of great significance to her.

She hoped to invite her eldest sister-in-law to attend, but she couldn't help but feel timid.

Maybe she's not that good yet?

And my sister-in-law is so busy these days...

There was a flash of confusion in her eyes, and then she raised her eyes and smiled brightly again: "When I come back, I will bring a gift for my sister-in-law."

Ruan Xingchen did not refuse.

She accompanied Huo Xiaoning to pack her luggage and personally saw her out.

She had to meet up with Master Yu Wan first, and then catch the plane together.

Now that everyone else is away, it's rare for the Huo family to be so quiet.

This made Huo Chenglin, who was still at home, stand out particularly.

Huo Yan glanced at him indifferently, his dark eyes calm yet filled with a hint of disdain.

It was obvious that he was an eyesore.

Speechless for a moment, Huo Chenglin's eyes flickered, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, my last monthly exam results are out, and I still maintain my original ranking."

His head of curly hair trembled slightly as he spoke, and the smile on his face was well-behaved and gentle.

"So, what reward do you want?"

Ruan Xingchen never hesitates to praise and encourage his younger siblings, and said with a smile: "Cheng Lin is awesome."

Huo Yan clenched his fists, and the dissatisfaction in his dark eyes became even stronger.

It’s just a monthly exam, and you still want to show off.

The term "younger brother" is indeed annoying.

Seeing Huo Chenglin's smug look, he couldn't help but say coldly, "Since you've always been in the same rank and haven't made any progress, you still have the nerve to ask for a reward?"

"I also want to continue to improve so as not to let my sister-in-law down."

With the corners of his mouth curled up, Huo Chenglin smiled politely and shyly, saying regretfully, "But I'm already number one in the grade, there's no way I can improve my ranking."

There was a cunning look in his eyes.

"How can we improve on the first one? If we can maintain it, we should reward it."

As if unaware of the quarrel between the two brothers, Ruan Xingchen smiled and said, "Your eldest brother doesn't want to give it to me. Tell me, is there anything you want?"

Huo Yan was furious.

He is only the first in the grade, but he has won so many awards since he was a child.

One day, he would put all his honor certificates and various competition trophies since childhood in front of her!

Touching the low-key earrings on his ears, Huo Chenglin paused: "Sister-in-law, I want another pair of earrings, is that okay?"

Afraid she might misunderstand, I added, "Anything similar to this will do. I just want a replacement."

He has never changed this pair of earrings since she gave them to him.

He could no longer remember why he pierced his ears, whether it was out of a momentary rebellious impulse or something else.

He is now glad that he got his ears pierced.

This gift was given by his sister-in-law and belongs to him alone.

None of the other brothers and sisters have it.

"You like earrings?" Ruan Xingchen was slightly surprised.

It was just a small request, so of course she agreed. She nodded and said, "Then I'll pick the right one for you."

Not a bit of perfunctory attitude.

Huo Chenglin's smile became more genuine, and he simply replied, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Ruan Xingchen couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips, but when she looked up, she met a pair of deep eyes.

She paused and asked tentatively, "Mr. Huo?"

"nothing."

Seeing that she didn't seem to be interested in expressing her opinion, Huo Yan pursed his lips, lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Something has happened at the company these days, so I may have to work overtime tonight. Madam, you don't have to wait for me to have dinner together."

The life of a domineering CEO is not just about love and parties, but also about countless work-related social events.

“Work is important.”

Ruan Xingchen responded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Huo, everything is fine at home."

She smiled brightly, and the transparent sunlight shone on her face, revealing a different kind of beauty.

Taking a deep breath, Huo Yan placed a gentle kiss on her forehead and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you for taking care of the family during this period."

Huo's company recently had a new project. As the group president, Huo Yan devoted more of his energy to it. He was so busy that he simply rested in the company at night.

In the middle of the night, Ruan Xingchen was awakened by the urgent ringing of his cell phone.
